Protect Children From Transgender Ideology

On a recent episode of Tucker Carlson Tonight, the horrors of transgender ideology were illustrated in frightening detail. Ryan T. Anderson, Heritage Foundation Fellow, and author of “When Harry Became Sally” explained that there is no science behind “transgenderism” and that it is rather a leftist ideological movement aimed at deconstructing the very foundations of human society.

Protect Children From Transgender Ideology

This would be horrific enough if it were limited to adults, but like everything else the degenerate Left does, they have targeted our children with this filth.

The surgeon adds: “What we’re finding is that as one new technology emerges, like hormone blockade — nobody thought we could block puberty — it creates another problem elsewhere. Now we don’t have enough tissue to create the adult genitals of the opposite sex.”

In an article at the Wall Street Journal, Dr. Paul McHugh, former psychiatrist in chief at Johns Hopkins Hospital said “policy makers and the media are doing no favors either to the public or the transgendered by treating their confusions as a right in need of defending rather than as a mental disorder that deserves understanding, treatment and prevention.” He further pointed out that the creeping legal prohibitions on questioning this ideology is an attack on the very concept of mental health, saying “Psychiatrists obviously must challenge the solipsistic concept that what is in the mind cannot be questioned. Disorders of consciousness, after all, represent psychiatry’s domain; declaring them off-limits would eliminate the field” and “Claiming that this is a civil-rights matter and encouraging surgical intervention is in reality to collaborate with and promote a mental disorder.”

The story of David Reimer is instructive. The victim of a botched circumcision which destroyed his penis, David was raised by his parents as a girl on the advice of John William Money, a psychologist, sexologist and author, specializing in research into sexual identity and biology of gender. Money was one of the first “scientists” to study the psychology of sexual fluidity and how the societal constructs of “gender” affect an individual. Academic sexologist Milton Diamond later reported that Reimer’s realization he was not a girl crystallized between the ages of 9 and 11, and he transitioned to living as a male at age 15. Well known in medical circles for years anonymously as the “John/Joan” case, Reimer later went public with his story to help discourage similar medical practices. He later committed suicide after suffering years of severe depression, financial instability, and a troubled marriage.

It may be all fine and well for adults to suffer these consequences as a result of their poor decisions. Unfortunately, they have mobilized politically to redistribute the costs of their behavior among the general population through political action.

All of this stems from the leftist ideological belief that gender differences, and male domination of society are inherently oppressive. In an effort to fight “patriarchy” they are attempting to deconstruct gender itself, without which the human race literally cannot survive. Since healthy adults are capable of seeing the danger in this line of thinking, they have targeted our children for indoctrination and medical intervention before they have the mental faculties to discern the problem.

In the wake of the Obergefell v. Hodges decision, which unconstitutionally forced gay “marriage” on all 50 states, the anti-family Left wasted no time in promoting the next level of degenerate nonsense upon the American people. Seemingly before Kim Davis was even released from jail, transgender bathrooms were the next civil rights movement. Before that issue was even settled, they started giving children puberty blockers and opposite sex hormones.

Roughly half of all transgender people try to kill themselves. They have dramatically higher rates of drug and alcohol abuse. They invite violence upon themselves through promiscuity and deception.

Our children deserve better than this.

Please call on Congress to make it a felony to indoctrinate or medicate children with transgenderism
